Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved liner for rehabilitating pipes, passages, and manholes.
- the present invention relates to a multiply internal lining for an eroded or damaged pipe, manhole, or passageway, in which a felt impregnated vinyl ply is mechanically locked to inner and outer resin hardened fiberglass plies.
- Waste water is transported through a system of conduits, known as sewers, from the point of generation to a remote treatment or disposal site. Frequently, the exposed surfaces become deteriorated, resulting in undesirable leakage and difficulty with the flow of the fluid.
- the sewers are typically provided with a vertically disposed manhole.
- the manhole has an opening at the surface or grade level.
- the lower or invert end of the manhole has a flow path, known as a lateral, through which sewage flows on its way to the treatment plant.
- the manhole may be formed of cement, concrete or brick, and typically has an internal diameter many times greater than the diameter of the flow path of the lateral.
- the sewage may generate an atmosphere which is damaging to the mortar with which a brick manhole is formed.
- the environment may be damaging to the cementitous material used in manufacturing the manhole.
- rainfall or surface water may enter the manhole, thereby overloading the sewage system and potentially causing untreated sewage to be discharged into streams, lakes, and the like.
- Preserving the structural integrity of manholes is one means of minimizing the load applied to a sewage pumping treatment plant.
- a principal object of the present invention is to provide a liner for sealing and reinforcing a manhole which provides extra structural reinforcement to the manhole.
- a liner assembly for sealing and reinforcing a manhole includes a multiple ply contoured tube having first, second, and third oriented plies.
- the first ply includes inner and outer surfaces for being impregnated with a material for rigidifying and binding the outer surface of the first ply to the interior of the manhole.
- the third ply includes inner and outer surfaces for being impregnated with a material for rigidifying the inner surface of the third ply, so that the interior of the manhole is structurally reinforced.
- the second ply is impermeable to fluids, and is disposed between the first and third outermost plies.
- the second ply includes an impermeable membrane having fibers impregnated on inner and outer surfaces of the second ply, but not penetrating the membrane.
- the outer surface of the second ply is bonded to the inner surface of the first ply, and the inner surface of the second ply is bonded to the outer surface for the third ply.
- the liner assembly includes means for securing the outermost, innermost, and impermeable plies together, so that the plies are facially oriented.
- a rehabilitated manhole includes a vertically disposed manhole having an upper end, internal walls, and a lower end with at least one lateral.
- a reinforcing system is positioned within the manhole.
- the reinforcing system includes a support tube assembly comprising first, second, and third juxtaposed layers, with the first and third layers formed from a woven, structural material.
- the second layer is disposed between the first and third layers, and is formed from a membrane impermeable to fluids and has fibers impregnated on its first and second surfaces, but not penetrating through the membrane.
- Each of the first and third layers is impregnated with an epoxy resin system, so that the first and third layers are rigidified and the third layer is bonded to the internal walls and lower end of the manhole.
- the fibers on the first surface of the second layer are bonded to the inner surface of the third layer, and the fibers on the second surface of the second layer are bonded to the outer surface of the first layer.
- Each of the layers is cut proximate to the lateral for permitting access thereto.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the liner assembly of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the preferred embodiment of the second ply of the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the preferred embodiment of the second ply as it is used according to the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of an alternative embodiment of the second ply as it is used according to the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is an elevational view, partially in section, illustrating the liner assembly of FIG. 1 being positioned within a manhole;
- FIG. 6 is an elevational view, partially in section, of the manhole of FIG. 5 after the liner assembly has been inflated.
- Liner assembly L is a generally cylindrical tube comprised of plies or layers 10, 12, and 14.
- An inflation bladder 16 overlies the ply 14, but is selectively removable therefrom.
- the liner assembly L has an open end 18 and an opposite closed end which has a contoured cut 20 therein.
- the liner assembly L is formed from a plurality of plies 10, 12, and 14 which are facially disposed in the order named. Respective edges of the plies are secured together, such as by stitching 15 with a double needle machine, in order to create the generally tubular configuration of the liner assembly L. The stitching also serves to maintain the plies 10, 12, and 14 in their facially disposed orientation during fabrication of the liner assembly L and its subsequent installation. While the liner assembly L is disclosed as being cylindrical, it may have whatever shape is called for by the structure to be rehabilitated.
- the plies 10 and 14 are both formed from a woven structural-type fiberglass, such as disclosed in my prior cited U.S. Pat. No. 5,265,981. I prefer that the fiberglass be a 24 oz. woven roving, in order to provide adequate structural integrity for the use to which the liner assembly L is to be put.
- the ply 12 is a composite fabric, and is best illustrated with reference to FIGS. 2, 3, and 4.
- ply 12 includes a nonporous inner membrane 12a sandwiched between outer layers of fiber 12b and 12c.
- the inner membrane is impermeable to water, gas, and chemical attack, which provides strength to the liner assembly L during manufacture and installation, and also prevents migration of water, gas, and chemicals from the ply 10 to the ply 14.
- the inner membrane 12a is a polyester fabric, coated with polyvinyl chloride, so that the polyester fabric is encased in a vinyl blanket forming the membrane.
- the outer fiber layers 12b and 12c are polyester felts, which is impregnated or impressed onto the outer surfaces of the inner membrane 12a to be mechanically connected thereto.
- the felt fibers of layers 12b and 12c do not penetrate inner membrane 12a, so ply 12 retains its impermeable quality.
- a suitable composite material for the ply 12 may be purchased from the Hartz Corporation.
- the ply 12 has a thickness of 2.77 mm, greater than that of plies 10 and 14.
- the base polyester fabric 12a has a weight of 4.0 oz/yd 2 .
- Each of the plies 10 and 14 is impregnated with an epoxy resin system prior to installation of the liner assembly L.
- the epoxy resin system causes the fiberglass layers 10 and 14 to be rigidified after being cured, while being mechanically bonded also to the ply 12.
- the resin impregnated plies 10 and 14 mesh with the outer fiber layers 12b and 12c of ply 12, causing the epoxy resin to be absorbed onto the outer fiber layers 12b and 12c.
- the fibers of layers 12b and 12c of ply 12 become mechanically bonded with the resin impregnated plies 10 and 14, forming a strong bond between the plies.
- outer fiber layers 12b and 12c of ply 12 provide a mechanical connection to the plies 10 and 14 after the resin hardens, bonding an outer fiber layer 12b of ply 12 to outer ply 10, and the outer fiber layer 12c to the inner ply 14, securely together.
- the risks of prying ply 14 from ply 12, and rupturing ply 12 are significantly reduced.
- the thickness of the felt of layers 12b, 12c can be increased or varied. The thicker the felt, the stronger the bond will be between the plies.
- the epoxy resin system causes the ply 10 to be bonded to the surrounding walls of the manhole, thereby providing structural support for the manhole because the epoxy resin system fills the openings left by damaged or removed mortar, or the like.
- the epoxy resin system 22 may be applied to the liner assembly L through a roller 24 which spreads the resin system 22 over the plies 10 and 14.
- Each of the plies 10 and 14 should be thoroughly impregnated by resin 22.
- the outer two layers of the liner assembly L are peeled back, much like socking and unsocking two tube socks, and the resin is initially applied to the ply 14, after which the bladder 16 is then applied.
- the liner assembly L is then realigned with the interior fiberglass layer and the inflation bladder, and the epoxy resin system 22 then applied to the ply 10.
- the plies 10 and 14 be impregnated with a two component epoxy system, such as disclosed in my prior cited U.S. Pat. No. 5,265,981 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,490,744.
- the outer fiber layers 12d and 12e are of differing thicknesses, as illustrated with particular reference to FIG. 4.
- the outer fiber layer 12e of ply 12 is thicker than the outer fiber layer 12d of ply 12.
- the thicker layer 12e provides a stronger bond between ply 12 and inner ply 14, than the bond formed between layer 12d and ply 10. While it is important to have a strong bond between both ply 12 and ply 10 and ply 12 and ply 14, a stronger bond may be desired between ply 12 and ply 14, because ply 14 is directly exposed to the damaging environment of the sewage system.
- outer layers 12d and 12e may be of any thickness, as is desired.
- Manhole M is a brick manhole which has bricks 26 secured together by mortar 28.
- the faces 30 of the bricks 26 have become irregular due to the damaging environment to which the faces 30 have been exposed.
- the mortar 28 also has been damaged or removed by the environment, with the result that the bricks 26 are spalling and/or being loosened and removed.
- Liner assembly L is adapted and designed to reinforce the manhole M while permitting the sewer pipes 40 and 42 to remain in service. It can be seen in FIG. 5 that a crane (not shown) has a cable 53 to which a hook 54 is attached for connection to bracket 52 of lifting assembly 50 secured to flange 48 by bolts. Collar 46 may be used to secure the liner assembly L to the neck 42.
- the liner assembly L may be fabricated to substantially correspond to the contour of the manhole M.
- the liner assembly L is manufactured to substantially correspond to the configuration and at least the size of the manhole M, thereby substantially eliminating any gapping which could occur between the liner assembly L and the surfaces of the manhole M.
- the liner assembly L can be appropriately fabricated by conventional sewing techniques, and the stitching 15 resulting from those techniques achieves the added benefit of securing the plies 10, 12, and 14 together.
- Each of the plies 10, 12, and 14 is normally rectangular in plan, so that the liner assembly L requires that respective edges of the plies be secured together, preferably by double needle stitching, in order to create the tubular configuration of FIG. 1, or whatever other configuration may be required to match the contour of the manhole M. Additional stitching may also be provided as necessary.
- the assembly L is pressurized with heated air, as disclosed in my prior cited references U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,265,981 and 5,490,744. This causes the liner assembly L to inflate and contact the walls of the manhole M to cure the resin system impregnating the plies 10 and 14.
- FIG. 6 illustrates the liner assembly L when positioned within the manhole M and after having been inflated with pressurized heated air. It can be seen in FIG. 6 that the liner assembly L and the resin system impregnating the ply 10 intimately engage the exposed faces 30 of the bricks 26, and also permit the laterals 40 and 42 to be preserved.
- the intimate engagement of the ply 10 and its impregnated resin with the bricks 26 and mortar 28 of the manhole M not only stops water infiltration and gaseous and chemical deterioration in the manhole M, but also provides structural support thereafter.
- the resin 22 impregnating the ply 10 causes the ply 10 to be rigidified.
- the ply 10 is formed from a structural-type of fiberglass, so that it provides substantial support to the manhole M thereafter.
- the ply 14 is likewise formed from a structural fiberglass, and the resin system 22 impregnating the ply 14 likewise causes the ply 14 to become rigidified.
- the rigidfied plies 10 and 14 thereby provide structural support to the manhole, substantially increasing its usable life.
- outer fibers 12b, 12c to plies 10 and 14 provide further structural support and integrity to the rehabilitated manhole M.
- Ply 14 when rigidified to fibers 12b of ply 12, protects the inner membrane 12a of outer ply 12, such as when the manhole M may be accessed for inspection, line cleaning, or televising of sewer lines within the system. It is not unusual to access manholes with ladders, harnesses and other devices and to use different types of equipment within the manhole structure. Such equipment could, however, tear the non-porous ply 12, so as to permit water infiltration. Therefore, the bonding of the two structural layers of resin impregnated fiberglass to the outer fibers 12b, 12c is important for providing extra structural support for the non-porous inner membrane 12a.
- the non-porous membrane 12a After curing of the resin system, the non-porous membrane 12a provides a permanent barrier to stop further deterioration of the manhole from gases or chemicals and eliminates any infiltration or exfiltration.
